Hmmm, for the record:
I do NOT want to limit the user’s freedom of choice!
Instead, I want to prevent OSX/KDE newcomers from getting
frustrated with weird-looking app layouts for no reason,
in order to give those a better impression of KDE’s status
on OSX than they currently are getting out-of-the-box.
Kate, for instance, is a nice editor, but its screwed-up GUI always kept me away from
using it on OSX. With kde4-workspace & qtcurve installed and selected as standard theme,
I had a much nice user experience in all KDE apps so far.

Please note, according to René, there are *NO* issues with the QtCurve theme, only with
the regular non-aqua KDE-themes (like e.g. Oxygen) which are installed with kdelibs4.

See above!
Greets,

P.S.: BTW, anything else I could do for your to support this week’s release?
